It's impossible for students to find a parking at Hillel Academy. A multitude of us students are of and above the legal driving age and it's not fair for us to have to damage our cars in parking on the sidewalk and even, at times, on Cherry Drive making us unaware of the possible dangers with parking our cars so far away. We've also been given the opportunity and the responsibility by our parents to drive to school in order to get an education but It's almost impossible be able to complete this feat with how inadequate the parking spaces are. To make matters worse, there is one, if not two parking lots which are constantly always empty at the bottom of the school to which we are now asking permission to gain access to. We hope you understand our decision to petition this particular issue.

Seeing this kind of movement reminds me that the exhaustion of dealing with the parking situation is shared by so many others. It has been a long road just to get people to acknowledge the problem but we are finally finding our footing. I intend to keep pushing forward until we get access to those empty lots.

"Something needs to be done" a mother said the other day. The school leaves us no choice but to park on the neighbors sidewalk. There is no security for our cars on the road or people walking to their cars in the evenings after their respective activities and this is of utmost concern, especially as Cherry Gardens has become a popular area for armed robberies. Students' small cars cannot even get on the curb. My shocks are taking a toll and they now bottom out. There is an entire parking lot in the school that is empty on all days apart from special events. The school needs to do something.

I highly agree with this petition as a student who drives. My car is unsafe outside and the sidewalk that we park on can potentially damage our cars as a majority of us drive low cars and it can also puncture our tires.

Being an alumni of Hillel Academy, I am fully aware of this problem. For years parking has been a problem for student drivers, myself included and I am in full support of this petition. I am proud to see the Student Council Body address this problem and hope the administration can address the issue. My concern is the issue of theft. Security will not always be watching the cars parked outside of the school, leaving students' cars liable to theft. Students should be able to travel to school without being worried about their cars being parked outside campus liable to theft and damage.

My car has been hit while parked on the curb and it's dangerous for my little sister to cross the road especially when there is so much traffic in the morning.

When students are forced to park outside on the lawns of private property the people who own the that area complain and write notes attached to the cars which ruins the reputation of the school. The problem can be solved very easily just let students park inside the school

Even though I get a parking space in the mornings, it would be better if i could park closer to the lounge because I have a ton of heavy material for art and it is becomes very difficult.

In comparison to how many students drive, and how many have asked for extra parking provision, it is only right that administration take some action to address the issue
